		<description><![CDATA[One of my greatest complaints against contemporary American politicians is that they lack consistent and coherent ideology. Political campaigns, to me, are largely irrelevant because they focus on people and issues &#8211; they never focus on ideology.
Observers frequently complain about rampant mudslinging and cry out that campaigns should focus on &#8220;the issues.&#8221; A point that [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somefreethoughts.wordpress.com&blog=3823603&post=45&subd=somefreethoughts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, the bottom line is that traditional taxes are really not the issue, and they distract people from what is the real issue: spending. No matter what the government does with taxes, they will find a way to finance their expenses. Lowering taxes just makes people feel better. We keep them at a high enough rate that people believe the distraction that they really are what's important. Unless the government wishes to sink further into debt and inflate the dollar even more, there's only one response: cut spending.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somefreethoughts.wordpress.com&blog=3823603&post=43&subd=somefreethoughts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

The above page details the Obama administration&#8217;s attitudes toward, and plans for, dealing with civil rights. There are two fundamental problems in thinking that pop out at me when I read it. First, when talking about &#8220;the problem&#8221; they don&#8217;t really address civil rights. Second, when talking about &#8220;the plan&#8221; they quickly [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somefreethoughts.wordpress.com&blog=3823603&post=41&subd=somefreethoughts&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

The man gets exclusive rights to a fertile vagina, and the woman is taken care of and financially secured.
